I personally don’t think that it is ethical for people to
represent themselves inaccurately. Online dating is a choice of dating that is
essentially available for adults looking for friendships and even committed
romantic relationships. The only downfall to this type of dating is people are
able to deceive others by posting different ages, false pictures of themselves,
and even false biographies. A person can be whoever they choose in essence if
they continue their relationship online. I don’t think that representing
yourself inaccurately is fair to those who are online revealing their true
self. It doesn't level the playing field and makes it unfair. Deception is
present in all interaction but is more like online versus face to face. When
you are in person you are unable to lie directly about gender, race, and other
physical qualities. Someone who is willing to deceive another will find a way
whether in person or online but meeting the person eventually will uncover a
lot of truth.
